    We could not have asked for a better place to stay for our week in Edinburgh. All of the rooms are large, with big windows to let in the sunshine. The flat was clean, the beds very comfortable, and all necessary amenities provided. The kitchen was well stocked (coffee, tea, sugar, salt, pepper, some spices). The location is incredible, easily walkable to the Royal Mile, Grassmarket, New Town, Dean Village and to meeting places for tours. There is a beautiful view of the castle just outside the door. I very highly recommend this accommodation.

    This was our second stay at this location and it was just as great as the first time. Location is great, management is very responsive, flat was clean and quiet. Has having you need in the kitchen, and the beds were comfortable. Even my husband, whose hobby is complaining, had nothing negative to say about the flat. And what could be better than stepping out the front door and seeing the castle? I’m hoping for a third stay next year!

    Location was perfect. Everything we needed or wanted to see was a short walk or used Uber for longer distances. Flat was very nice and clean for our family of 4. Check in was super easy and owners answered any and all questions we had. Washing machine was a huge bonus. Fully functioning kitchen worked great. Plenty of space so we did not feel on top of each other. Highly recommend. Hope to be back someday.

    The property was spacious and clean. Bedrooms and bathrooms more than met our needs. The location provided easy access to the Castle, Markets and Bars/Restaurants. Most everything we needed was in walking distance. The farmers market just down the block was a welcome surprise. I did not realize that the apartment was located up some stairs and did not really have any outdoor space to access except out the front door of the building.

    The flat is located just behind Edinburgh Castle and very close to Princes St. The location for visiting Edinburgh could not be better! The flat is just like the photos. It has a very large living room, separate kitchen and dining area. It has two bedrooms, one with a double/queen bed with a large en-suite bathroom and a second large bedroom with three twin beds that can be configured as a king and a twin. The second bathroom is across the second bedroom. You have to go up a flight of stairs to enter the flat. The kitchen, in addition to the refrigerator, oven, stove, and microwave, has a French press, toaster and kettle. Just a couple of blocks away you have a variety of restaurants, coffee shops and pubs. We would definitely stay there again on any future trip to Edinburgh.

    This was the perfect place for my daughter and I to spend our holidays. We each had a room/bath, along with a large parlor, full kitchen, and dining area. It was so easy to walk to Old Town and Princes St.Several grocers were close by, and it was a 10-minute walk to the Tram and Scot Rail stations.Our trip was so much more enjoyable staying here vs a Hotel.We've already discussed staying in the same flat for future visits to Edinburgh.

    Loved the ambience and spaciousness of the apartment. Well appointed. There’s a few changes I would recommend. It was an easy walk to the castle, the store and Grassmarket. I would stay here again but would like to see the couch replaced.

    Don't let the Pics or reviews fool you. This place was so bad we had to leave within an hour. It had an awful odor, the furniture was worn out stained, the rugs were dirty and stained, and there was mold in the bathroom. We immediately contacted the property management and did not receive a prompt response. A week later they said they sent someone out and did not detect the odor. I had to find a hotel at the last minute which was extremely costly. Now the management company is saying no refund. I would not stay at this location and I would not trust or deal with this property management company.

    It was a great location to use as a base. We could get to old and new towns very easy. Place was large and ver nice. You do sink into the sofa and it is rough to get out of for older people. We had a very positive experience. Thanks.

    Perfectly located just off Castle Terrace at the base of the castle. 2 minutes from The Royal Lyceum, 3 minutes from Usher Hall, 4 minutes from the Traverse Theatre. Easy walking distance to excellent restaurants. We loved it.

    This is a beautiful, historic property that is superbly located with a breathtaking view of Edinburgh Castle outside the front door. We walked everywhere from here with easy access to groceries, cafes, bakeries, the weekly farmers market, and Usher Hall. It was clean, and well appointed; communication regarding the unit was prompt and helpful. Highly recommend!

    There was nothing about this flat that I didn’t love. It was clean, quiet and convenient. Had everything we needed. I hated to leave! Loved the drying rack in the kitchen. I would 100 percent stay here again with great pleasure.
